What do you think caused Crouch to....

Give us a silent ( if its true) then try to quietly visit Tennessee?
Do you think his silent to us was actually true?

I have my doubts that he was a silent commit but we may never know. Dabo seems to make it clear that if you commit you are All In and no more visits.
Admittedly I keep up with recruiting from a great distance. I watch it close around signing day to see what the experts say about all the players we signed. But it seems that players that have "handlers" do not seem to fit well with our program's culture. I may be wrong and there may be many more guys with handlers than I think.
At the end of the day Dabo doesn't miss on many recruits and he seems to get the ones he really wants.
Good to know that if we do not get Crouch we have other guys equally as capable.

You want the truth and I'll give my opinion ....

Based on the truth I've been told by guys who claim this is the truth. If you think about it then it makes sense. Handlers as they are called like to get paid for their "services" and feel they are so entitled. If the player loves the visit but there is nothing in it for the handler then the center of influence is not going to likely agree on the school in spite of the visit. Now I'm just telling you why guys with handlers in none of our big three usually fail to land in Clemson as I was told. True or not it kind of makes some sense to me but there are those among who still believe NCAA basketball recruiting is all forthright and honest above the table as well. I'm glad that in the end we let him know where this staff stands on that issue.

Makes no difference. You will find out tonight at 6.30. PS ..Would not read anything into the predictions of these great recruiting gurus on this site. Think they usually run about 90% failure rate on their predictions. If he comes, he comes--if not we have a GREAT class coming in. He would simply be icing on the cake.

I hate to say it but it shows their success rate on predictions and the average is 81.41% for 247 predictions.

It certainly helps that they can change their predictions right before the player's announcement.

We backed off, its already been confirmed we're not in it anymore even tho we're still in the final 3 for his decision later this evening. There was def some extracurricular stuff going on that lead to Dabo pulling the plug on this one, and that was the right move. No need to even begin to get involved with that mess, he's not a Clemson guy period. With all the highly talented/character guys we get in here now, we don't need a single one that changes that culture.

Choice down to Jeremy Pruitt and Tennessee. Sad when he could have spent 4 years with Dabo Swinney.

It's a simple thing. His "handler" got a payoff from UT. That's it in a nutshell. We have better to go after.

It's funny how earlier this week you could sense the situation and how he wasn't a tiger and belonged else where. Some were saying the recruiting sites were trying to build hype. Not saying they dont ever but it was clear this self absorbing individual doesnt stand a chance in tiger town. Chase that corrupt money you get. You dont belong a Clemson Tiger anyway
Go Tigers! Beat ND!
